There were a few add-on parts I didn't use (the door and window covers), but I did add in the flags
and pennants. There are triangular flags as well; these I am planning to fasten to string so I can drape
them between the various towers. I used cooking skewers as poles for the flags. The green background is
one of those really nifty felt puzzle mats. And of course I had to use my LEGO® mini-figs to add
some life to the scenes.

I would like to thank my extremely talented co-worker, Anup Kafle,
for helping me actually do the photo shoot. We spent a good chunk of time one evening at
work in the conference room getting this ready to photograph, and
he was amazingly patient and persistent in getting some truly awesome shots. He does some fantastic
photography -- I have a limited edition print of one of his shots
gracing my house -- and I'm thrilled he agreed to give me a hand. (And his camera probably cost more than I make in
a year.)
